PHP COMMENTS
 WHAT IS A PHP COMMENT ?

• A comment in PHP code is a line that is not executed as a part of the

program. Its only purpose is to be read by someone who is looking
at the code.
• Comments can remind you of what you were thinking when you
wrote the code

<?php
// This is a single-line comment

# This is also a single-line comment

?>

Echo is marginally faster than

print. 5

Echo can be declared :

Print can be declared :

“print” or “print()” 7

PHP DATA TYPES
PHP SUPPORTS THE FOLLOWING DATA TYPES:

STRING 01
INTEGER 02
FLOAT 03
BOOLEAN 04

17
PHP SUPPORTS THE FOLLOWING DATA TYPES:

ARRAY 01
OBJECT 02
NULL 03
RESOURCE 04

18
 PHP STRING

• A string is a sequence of characters, like "Hello world!".

• A string can be any text inside quotes. You can use single or
double quotes

Hello world!
Hello world!

19
 PHP INTEGER
• An integer data type is a non-decimal number between -2,147,483,648 and
2,147,483,647.
• In the following example $x is an integer. The PHP var_dump() function returns the
data type and value:

int(5985)

20
 PHP FLOAT
• A float (floating point number) is a number with a decimal point or
a number in exponential form.
• In the following example $x is a float. The PHP var_dump() function
returns the data type and value:

float(10.365)

21
 PHP BOOLEAN

• A Boolean represents two possible states: TRUE or FALSE.

• Booleans are often used in conditional testing.

$x = true;
$y = false;

22
 PHP ARRAY

• An array stores multiple values in one single variable.

• In the following example $cars is an array. The PHP var_dump()
function returns the data type and value:

23
 PHP NULL

• Null is a special data type which can have only one value: NULL.
• A variable of data type NULL is a variable that has no value assigned to it.
Tip: If a variable is created without a value, it is automatically assigned a
value of NULL. Variables can also be emptied by setting the value to NULL:

NULL

24
 PHP RESOURCE

• The special resource type is not an actual data

type. It is the storing of a reference to functions
and resources external to PHP.
• A common example of using the resource data
type is a database call.

STRINGS
 PHP STRING

28
 strlen( )
The PHP strlen( ) function returns the length of a string.

Example:

29
 str_word_count( )

The PHP str_word_count() function counts the number of words in a string.

Example:

30
 strrev( )

The PHP strrev() function reverses a string.

Example:

31
 strpos( )
• The PHP strpos() function searches for a specific text within a string. If
a match is found, the function returns the character position of the first
match.

Example:

32
 str_replace( )
• The PHP str_replace() function replaces some characters with some other
characters in a string.

Example:

33
 strtoupper( )

• The strtoupper() function returns the string in upper case:

Example:

34
 strtolower( )

• The strtolower() function returns the string in lower case:

Example:

35
 trim( )

• The trim() removes any whitespace from the beginning or the end:

Example:

36
 explode( )
• The PHP explode() function splits a string into an array. The first parameter
of the explode() function represents the "separator".

Example:
